Victim-session script execution via unvalidated popup note

Published Jan 23, 2024 · Updated Jun 20, 2025

Reflected XSS in Trend Micro Mobile Security for Enterprise before 9.8.3311 allows remote attackers to run script in a victim session. The DevicesManagementEditNotePopupTip endpoint reflects user-supplied data without proper validation, allowing arbitrary script injection. Exploitation requires an authenticated victim to open a malicious link or file, after which the script can issue web requests with that victim's privileges.
